General Discussion / Re: Is there a more modern midsize Guzzi styled like V700/Ambo/Eldo?

Maybe Guzzi Steve would sell one of his v 700 s,right size and surprisingly good brakes and handling,but not cheap.

Yes, I'd sell that one. Looks like just an old bike but very reliable.

Be patient. There will be a new California, probably with a V100 engine.

Deal fell through. The seller is now offering it to me at $3450, which is still too high, I think.

In fact, he'd have to come down well below $3K, since I've pretty much moved on mentally. It's funny how you can pretty gung-ho about a bike, then do a little more reading/learning, and decide it's not quite right.

I think it was Perazzimix who said it, that Nevada is a $1200 bike in VA.  If you can find one.

...the seller of the Nevada got a deposit on the bike...
The buyer's scheduled to come back up from SC today and finalize the deal.

I think the closest thing to a modern Loop is probably the Indian Scout series.

Very interesting. I hadn't thought of them and will take a closer look. 

At first blush, I think "expensive."

Well, it does not have quite the same look as an early Loop, but the G5 is one of my favorite Guzzi’s.

Very nice!
In a similar vein, I'm also Convert-curious as well!

   Thank you for asking the question, and thank everyone for being humble enough to let Beowolf know he is not a lone dummy!
  I learned to judge by looking at the valves to see when they are fully closed...

Maybe a spritz of Deoxit?
